In his Friday letter "Obamacare hurts lower-paid workers," Ron Tupps criticized Obamacare because "employees are not permitted to work more than 28 hours a week." Employees were denied a full-time 30 hour week by their greedy Ebenezer Scrooge corporate bosses, not by Obamacare.

In his Friday letter “Obamacare hurts lower-paid workers,” Ron Tupps criticized Obamacare because “employees are not permitted to work more than 28 hours a week.”

Employees were denied a full-time 30 hour week by their greedy Ebenezer Scrooge corporate bosses, not by Obamacare. These corporate Scrooges had previously cut worker hours to below the 40-hour level to avoid paying for employee medical benefits required for full-time workers, an action that prompted Obamacare in the first place.

I am a moderate Republican waiting for the Spirits of Christmas Past, Christmas Present and Christmas Future to change these Corporate America Scrooges' attitudes about their workers well-being. In the meantime, Obamacare will have to do.
